"Here at JASPER, anyone can perform any job if they want to learn it. Our company doesn’t limit any opportunity and I haven’t run into anyone who wasn’t willing to answer my questions or support me. I truly believe that any opportunity, at any level, is open to me. I also think JASPER is unique in that our leadership team knows everyone by name and truly cares about us like family."

"One of the great benefits of JASPER is the opportunity you have for growth, as they do a lot of promoting from within. In my nine years with JASPER, I have held various positions, such as a Production Associate in the Lifter Department, a JET 101 Trainer, an Internal Process Auditor, and a Manufacturing Team Leader. It's allowed me to learn so much more about the company."

"Before coming to work at JASPER, my perception was that you had to be a 'gear head' to work here. I have learned that through our “promote from within” mindset we are able to find the right fit for our Associates and create long-term career opportunities. By investing a great deal of effort into training and continuous improvement, we ensure that there are infinite possibilities for our people. I am very proud of the performance of the JASPER ESOP through strategic growth and acquisitions during my tenure at JASPER".
